"We get people coming to this park and to this river in particular from all over the world," CGT Kayaks owner John Paeno said.

Paeno does business with many of them, renting and selling kayaks, canoes and paddleboards.

"Bonita Springs is very unique in the fact that they have this gorgeous river right in the center of town that you can paddle up and go into Old Cypress Forest," Paeno said.

Now the city dock that many of his customers launch from is about to be replaced.

"After years and years in the water, wood rots," Paeno said.

The city says they'll be rebuilding the entire thing, but they're also going to be adding a kayak and paddle board launch -- something the old dock doesn't have.

"This could be very popular and especially for young folks that come down in the winter," Bonita Springs resident D. Roll said.

The popular addition wasn't always in the plan. The city proposed the replacement last year without the launch for $35,000. The project was pushed back until this budget year and the plan was reconfigured adding to the launch and jacking up the price to more $80,000.

The money will come from community park impact fees instead of taxpayers.
